The Open Access to Knowledge (OAK) Law team led by Professor Brian Fitzgerald has received a Vice-Chancellor’s Award for Excellence in a ceremony held on 31 October, 2007 at Kelvin Grove. The Awards are offered annually to recognise exceptional performance of staff who demonstrate sustained and outstanding achievement in activities that are aligned to the University’s vision and goals....
PS: Kudos to Fitzgerald and the rest of the OAK Law team! (Disclaimer: I'm on the OAK Law advisory group, which means I know enough to appreciate its work, but have much too little involvement to take any credit.)

The open access movement:
Putting peer-reviewed scientific and scholarly literature
on the internet. Making it available free of charge and
free of most copyright and licensing restrictions.
Removing the barriers to serious research.
I recommend the OA tracking project (OATP) as the best way to stay on top of new OA developments. You can read the OATP feed on a blog-like web page or subscribe to it by RSS, email, or Twitter. You can also help build the feed by tagging new developments you encounter.
